What up with some of these posters

[FUC_U_PAYME]

Discreditingfighters like Bhop record but Praising Joe C not think by doing that all they are really doing is bring down there on fighter.

And as soon as some american poster says something about Joe C Hatton etc they cry about and make a thread bash the US then they call us babies when we try to defend our fighter .

And what up with all this hate towards fights base on the color of his skin.
Just asking?

So people that don't like Hopkins and his dirty, cowardly style of fighting, and don't agree with his status as "legend" based on two wins over fighters at their best two or more weight classes lower, are racist? F%$k outta here.

no but to say the only reason he is in the p4p ranking is cause he black is

MOst of the comments about Hopkins were made leading up to the Hopkins-Calzaghe fight in which Hopkins was routinely described as "a legend" and "an all time great" while Calzaghe was derided as a "protected euro" who "never fought nobody (sic)". The irony is of course that noth guys had a remarkable similar career ark so we're in a goose/gander situaion.

I hear what you're saying and it happens a lot with some Calzaghe fans that criticize Bhop.

For one, they don't realize critizing bhop and saying he really wasn't that good in the first place or whatever only makes Calzaghe look bad, because after all, he got a split decision in a very close fight and got dropped by a 43 year old version of bhop.

Second, Calzaghe and Bhop (love 'em or hate 'em) are similar in many ways. Their resumes are similar in that they both were champions for 10+ years and had 20+ title defenses and unified the belts. Hopkins has the bigger names on his resume, there is no dis*****g that. Calzaghe undefeated. You point and criticize bhop's resume, you're a hypocrite. And vise versa.

Third, to critisize bhop for wins over "smaller men" i.e trinidad and odh, is ****** for many reasons. For one, Trinidad/ODH were threats and challenged bhop and/or had titles. Two, do you honestly believe for a second that Calzaghe wouldn't jump on the oppurtinity to get paid more money then he ever has in his career to fight a "smaller man" like ODH? haha, he fought Peter Manfredo Jr. for money/exposure for crying out loud. Calzaghe can only hope he gets a huge payday like that before he retires (I mean that's what he's doing right now, going after big pay days, 40 year old Roy Jones jr and uh, the "smaller man" Kelly Pavlik).

Regardless though, both men should be respected for what they've done inside and outside of the ring despite whether or not you like the guy or not.

And like it or not, because they fought, their two names will forever be linked to eachother. So if you're a fan of one over the other, it serves no purpose to downplay the other mans legacy.
